Clockwise vertical arrows Emoji

Symbols

A pair of arrows arranged in a vertical circular motion, with one arrow pointing up and the other pointing down. It indicates a process of turning, refreshing, or repeating an action.

Usage Context

This icon is the standard visual shorthand for refreshing a web page, reloading a feed, or synchronizing data between a device and a cloud server. It is frequently used in tech support chats when a user needs to restart an app or when something like 🔄 fails to load properly.

History

Included in Unicode 6.0 in 2010, this design stems from early browser interface iconography. It evolved from the 'reload' buttons found in 1990s desktop software, where visual cues were necessary to show users how to pull fresh data from a server.
